Article Summary

Issue:

Flow couldn't detect the element for the next step while it is being played.

Causes:

  • Flow may have been created using the elements captured in a non-production (developer/UAT) environment, and an attempt is made to play the Flow in the Production environment. Element IDs are different for UAT and Production environments.
  • The underlying application has changed, or the specific element is missing.
  • If there are multiple similar elements on the application, Whatfix fails to recognize the right element.

Solutions:

  • Ensure that the Flow is created in the Production environment.
  • Edit the Flow and reselect the element. For more information, see Reselect Elements to manage UI changes.
  • In case of multiple similar elements, use CSS selectors to identify the right element.
